SO8318 : 'Freeeeze a Jolly Good Fellow'
taken 9 years ago, near to Gloucester, Gloucestershire, England
'Freeeeze a Jolly Good Fellow'
In celebration of Gloucester being one of the venues for the 2015 Rugby World Cup, these oval gentlemen have appeared around the city. Based partly on the local tale of Humpty Dumpty - actually a siege engine or cannon which was brought to bear on the city walls but which collapsed irreparably - and the handily coincidental shape of a rugby ball, these sculptures form a visitor trail. They have been individually worked on by artists and sponsored by local concerns, and will eventually go to auction for charity.
This 'Scrumpty' is called Freeeeze a Jolly Good Fellow, by artist Jenny Leonard and sponsored by Cathedral Deli. The spire of St Nicholas is in the background.
